I dunno about that Z.
If a coach hands me a towel to wipe the floor I aint taking it. In fact, I aint going near him to tell him we need a towel and if I happen to be there I'm already walking to the opposite sideline by the time he finds a towel to hand me.
As they say, it aint my job.

I generally go to the scorer's table to let them know when a towel is needed - hard to not be close to the bench area (I.E. coach) when you're at the table. Sure it "ain't my job," but I'm not going to make an issue out of it. 95% of the time a gym admin takes care of it, but it doesn't always work perfectly at the HS level.
Whatever works for each official. I learned a long time ago that asking for a towel and pretending to wipe up a wet spot is a great way to address a player without embarrassing them.
